I installed a set of H&R Wheel Spacers (7mm in Front, 15mm in Rear) on the Weekend, made a big difference on the appearance of the car. I thought that the wheels looked like they didn't sit right (after it was lowered), now I think the wheels are positioned nicely. Sorry about the dirty car, I washed it after this project was done.

Lookin good. How do you like the evo intake? I am toying with the idea of getting either the VFlo or getting the x51 intake, which of course will require a lot more work.

I don't mind the VFlo, it came with my first 997, and then swapped out to the new (actually new one as original was crushed in accident). I think the X51 is much nicer looking, but a little more work to install. If I were to do it over again, I would pick the X51.

Thanks for the input. So what other goodies do you have lined up for her in the near future? Seems like a mod a month for you!
lol the only difference in our mods list is that I have wheels and you have the H&R sways, so by no means behind at all.
I don't know, tint and Lloyd Mats are huge performance gains
I guess you are right, I didn't mention the the Tooki, iPod kit, remote key, and Passport SR7.
I sold my HRE's and spent the money on other mod's. I like the Carrera Classic Wheels, very simple and timeless. (and easy to clean). Although I still miss the HRE wheels, I am happy with the mods that I traded them for.

The HRE wheels are indeed nice in terms of the look and lightweight. I have taken pics of my car with the stock lobsters as well after I lowered it, and they look superb as well with the drop. For the money I could sell the HRE wheels for, I could get the x51 intake, software, plenum, etc or better yet safe the $ in the bank. How much did the spacers run you btw?

I quoted them with Damon at Tire Rack and a local supplier and the price was the same, local guy had them in stock, so I went with him. I am sure that Damon at the Tire Rack could get you a better price simply because you are south of the 49th. Email him damon@tirerack.com.
My price was $350 Cdn with taxes, cheap mod (compared to the rest of them).
